Assistant chat

The assistant chat component allows you to interact with the DataMiner Assistant directly from a dashboard or low-code app, without leaving the page. You can submit questions using text or voice input and, depending on the available configuration, choose a response mode and AI model before sending your request.

The DataMiner Assistant is currently in development and available as a preview feature upon request. When preview access is enabled, the assistant chat component also becomes available.

Assistant chat component actions

Component actions are operations that can be executed on a component when an event is triggered.

When you select the Execute component action option, you can choose from a list of components in the app and the specific actions available for each of them.

For the assistant chat component, the following component action is available:

  • Start new conversation: Starts a new conversation with the DataMiner Assistant without requiring you to interact directly with the assistant chat component itself.

    When configuring this action, you can specify either:

    • A fixed value to send as a query to the Assistant.

    • A dynamic value, such as the value of another component (for example, a text input component) or a URL parameter.

    When the action is triggered, the value is sent to the Assistant as a query.
